An Electronic Penetration Graph (EPG) was used to record Varroa mite feeding behavior. In this preliminary study we first correlated observed mite behavior with waveforms produced by the EPG and identified four distinct waveforms corresponding to resting, walking, feeding and probing. Then we recorded Varroa mites feeding on worker pupae continuously for 24 hours and analyzed their time distribution in the four behaviors using these waveforms. Our data showed that Varroa mites fed only during the day time and not at all at night time, and the total feeding time was short (0.35 ± 0.12 hr per 24 hr). We also compared the feeding behavior of mites when they fed on worker or drone pupae using an average recording durations of about 8 hours. Varroa mites rested for significantly shorter periods on drone pupae (t-test, P<0.05) than on worker pupae. They also fed longer on drone pupae than on worker puape, but the difference was not significant. Our study here shows that it is feasible to use EPG for monitoring mite feeding behavior, but to obtain meaningful data the monitoring must be performed inside brood cells.
